Do you get diagnosed for HG or you assume you have it?

I was diagnosed with it when I went to the hospital after throwing up non stop, does sound like you have it though! :(

Diagnosed and only because my doctor had it and recognized early signs. Got me on meds immediately and I have never had to go to the hospital because I got early intervention which is extremely rare. Most docs will discount you and it takes you losing a lot of weight or going to the hospital to diagnose so I encourage you to push for it if you’re constantly sick, constantly nauseous (normal morning sickness is not all day nausea- there is a point in the day where a woman feels “better” but with HG you won’t have that), gagging, there’s many forms and it’s not the same for all. The point I’m making is advocating for yourself so you can get the proper care

Sounds like you have it ☹️ as a first HG, second pregnancy mama (have a 2.5 year old and due in July) praying for you. It’s been so hard for me because most had it first time it hit me out of left field. I’m 32 weeks now still nauseous but vomitting slowed, you got this- take care of yourself 💜

Thank you all....I was afraid to admit I might have it, I'll see what the doc says, I just can't keep on going like this, with work and taking care of my 3yo it's impossible, fortunatelymy husband help a lot. I can't enjoy this pregnancy😥...you are all warriors to go through this

Thanks....I'm back from hospital, trying another medicine, they didn't say HG though, just slightly dehydrated....hopefully that medicine will help ....I was supposed to go to a wedding abroad tomorrow 😪

This is a very helpful site, sometimes you have to advocate really hard for yourself with HG as many doctors use outdated data and definitions. Remember treatment exists and you don’t have to suffer. Good luck 🤍

Thank you....I have been prescribed Zofran, it works really well. Just a bit nauseous now snd tired. I hope I can stop taking it soon. I'm not comfortable taking medication while pregnant, even if they said it's safe. Thanks everyone

Fyi I'm sick again 😪

Ah :( do go back to the doctor’s, just means you haven’t found the right treatment yet 🤞

It took me a bit to find the doseage, but zofran worked the best for me. I’m 33 weeks… thought I’d be off by now but I’ve accepted that it’s saved me and my baby. Both of us are very healthy and I do believe it’s because of the zofran. I take 2 4mg sublingual x3 a day then unisom & b6 at night. Don’t give up, take a minute to find the right thing that works for you but remember anything that will help you feed yourself and baby is worth it
